Leeds United will still have an interim management team in place when they take on Everton at Goodison Park this Saturday.
The two sides will go head-to-head in a relegation six-pointer after a disappointing first half of the season left both languishing near the foot of the table.
Their shared woes have resulted in the sackings of Frank Lampard and Jesse Marsch, but while the former has already been replaced at Everton by Sean Dyche, the search for a new Leeds boss is set to rumble on for longer.
